Awesome!
Also, I did not know the TL sound of the LL in Icelandic, from Old Norse...interesting! In Norwegian it would just be L...so a mountain would sound like an F in front of 'yell', 'fjell'...with a sort of looping, curvy sound to the 'ell', spoken more in the front of the mouth...
I always though of Norwegian as sounding like it's spoken in the front of the mouth, compared to Danish which sounds like it's back in the throat, and Swedish seemed to be somewhere in the middle. Where's Icelandic fit amongst the three, being closer to Old Norse?
